Advantages for your business

Benefit from a more flexible MTA
The Lively MTA is designed as an Employee Assistance Program that qualifies as an Excepted Benefit. By designing our benefit this way, your employees can benefit from:
- Larger employer allocation limits
- No reimbursement limits per mileage for distance traveled
- No reimbursement limits per night for lodging expenses
- Compatibility with Health Saving Accounts (HSA)
And unlike most MTAs with 100 mile requirements, Lively only has a 50 mile distance required for eligibility.
